Judy Sadlier and Gene Budinger wanted to spend their retirement adrift. Over the last years of their working life in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Judy, 69, a financial adviser, and Gene, 67, a real estate agent, had daydreamed of taking a few years to explore the Caribbean in the Skylark, their 36-ft. sailboat.
